regional and cross-regional biodiversity data mobilization projects
The 2025 round of the European Union-funded Biodiversity Information for Development (BID) programme is open for concept notes for regional and cross-regional biodiversity data mobilization projects.

Two types of grants are available through this programme:
1. Regional biodiversity data mobilization grants

Purpose: Build or strengthen regional collaborations to enhance knowledge-sharing, including capacity building and skills mobility, and to mobilize data for research and policy that address regional priorities

Funding: Up to €90,000

Implementation Period: 24 months

 

Cross-regional biodiversity data mobilization grants

Purpose: Build or strengthen cross-regional collaborations to enhance knowledge-sharing, including capacity building and skills mobility, and to mobilize data for research and policy that address shared cross-regional priorities

Funding: Up to €120,000

Implementation Period: 24 months

 

Deadline
Concept notes must be submitted in English through the GBIF Grants Portal by 2 February 2026, 16:00 CET (UTC+1).
